Managalore, Jul 10: “The knowledge of God makes a man perfect where and knowing God is the real knowledge which helps to succeed in life”, said Dr Abu Ameenah Bilal Philips, the Canadian Muslim scholar, in a talk at Milagres Hall on Friday July 10.
Dr Bilal Philips said, “Knowledge can be obtained by knowing God and his way. The one who seeks knowledge is one who knows God. The belief in God never becomes a blind belief and it is proved by the Greek philosophers like Plato and Aristotle”.
He said that the global culture we are looking at now is not a perfect one, adding that culture and civilizations must have soul.
“Technology has made us lose our soul as well as the knowledge of God. A man with the knowledge of God can walk on the right path”, he added.
